The subclass of Euler graphs with only one type of cycles under (mod 4) operation was studied in Part-1 of this series. It was established that such graphs under regularity are nonexistent for degree >2. Here we consider the subclass of…

Euler graphs are characterized by the simple criterion that degree of each node is even. By restricting on the cycle types yet additional intrinsic properties of Euler graphs are unveiled. For example, regularity higher than degree two is…

We propose a Law of Nature? Viz., Pure Regularity Occurs at Na\"ive Levels and Regularity has Affinity with Evenness. In a series of three papers, it was established that regular Euler graphs with only one type of (pure) cycles are…

In a graph, $k$ cycles are {\em admissible} if their lengths form an arithmetic progression with common difference one or two. Let $G$ be a 2-connected graph with minimum degree at least $k\geqslant 4$. We prove that \begin{itemize} \item…

We study graphs on $n$ vertices which have $2n-2$ edges and no proper induced subgraphs of minimum degree $3$. Erd\H{o}s, Faudree, Gy\'arf\'as, and Schelp conjectured that such graphs always have cycles of lengths $3,4,5,\dots, C(n)$ for…

The maximum number of vertices in a graph of maximum degree $\Delta\ge 3$ and fixed diameter $k\ge 2$ is upper bounded by $(1+o(1))(\Delta-1)^{k}$. If we restrict our graphs to certain classes, better upper bounds are known. For instance,…

In this paper we study three substructures in hypergraphs that generalize the notion of an Euler tour in a graph. A flag-traversing tour of a hypergraph corresponds to an Euler tour of its incidence graph, hence complete characterization of…

In this paper, we prove a tight minimum degree condition in general graphs for the existence of paths between two given endpoints, whose lengths form a long arithmetic progression with common difference one or two. This allows us to obtain…

A subcycle of an Eulerian circuit is a sequence of edges that are consecutive in the circuit and form a cycle. We characterise the quartic planar graphs that admit Eulerian circuits avoiding 3-cycles and 4-cycles. From this, it follows that…

The Moore bound constitutes both an upper bound on the order of a graph of maximum degree $d$ and diameter $D=k$ and a lower bound on the order of a graph of minimum degree $d$ and odd girth $g=2k+1$. Graphs missing or exceeding the Moore…

In this short note it is shown that every graph of diameter 2 and minimum degree at least 3 contains a cycle of length 4 or 8. This result contributes to the study of the Erd\H{o}s-Gy\'arf\'as Conjecture by confirming it for the class of…

Haj\'os conjecture asserts that a simple Eulerian graph on n vertices can be decomposed into at most (n - 1)/2 cycles. The conjecture is only proved for graph classes in which every element contains vertices of degree 2 or 4. We develop new…

A graph is $P_8$-free if it contains no induced subgraph isomorphic to the path $P_8$ on eight vertices. In 1995, Erd\H{o}s and Gy\'{a}rf\'{a}s conjectured that every graph of minimum degree at least three contains a cycle whose length is a…

Edge-girth-regular graphs (abbreviated as \emph{egr} graphs) are regular graphs in which every edge is contained in the same number of shortest cycles. We prove that there is no $3$-regular \emph{egr} graph with girth $7$ such that every…

The Erd\H{o}s-Gy\'{a}rf\'{a}s conjecture states that every graph with minimum degree at least three has a cycle whose length is a power of 2. Since this conjecture has proven to be far from reach, Hobbs asked if the…

The edges surrounding a face of a map $M$ form a cycle $C$, called the boundary cycle of the face, and $C$ is often not a simple cycle. If the map $M$ is arc-transitive, then there is a cyclic subgroup of automorphisms of $M$ which leaves…
